Thanks fellas! I'm pretty excited about that one.
This is my first grow log, but I've had several grows before this.
I get a little better each time. Ended up with a decent isolate too. Tons of clusters.
If only I could get some pins in this Pumpkin Seed tub.
Same conditions

Different nutrition profile could mean delays in pin time. Remember the number pin tropisim is full colonization but that would more accurately be expressed as full colonization / sufficient consolidation.

Ah, that makes sense to me. It shouldn't be too much longer!

i enjoyed following along with this, man! i know ill never use any pumpkin seeds, now haha.. maybe one of the jars got a hidden contam or something and maybe that is why it performed to poorly, comparatively?
at any rate, this was very cool.

Bummer about the trich. That was probably what held up the pin times.
If you try this again might i suggest a method like Muda bottles where the colony remains unbroken? Might help keep any latent bacteria at bay.
Regardless a worthy effort and I am sure you learned a few things from it.

Were the pumpkin seeds already shelled when you bought them? I meant to ask if you went shelled vs unshelled for any reason.

I really believe my jars were clean. My cultures we clean, and the sterilization ten was solid. The contamination didn't show up until after about ten days in fruiting. I have had a couple mono tubs contam with trich in the same room a few months, and I think that might have something to do with it.

I really didn't see the trich coming, but I guess nothing is ever guaranteed.
I certainly learned a lot, and I'll be sure to check out those Muda bottles!

Unshelled was what was available "raw", so I gave those a shot. I think having a shell might have helped with retaining moisture content though.
Thanks again for the love everyone! I hope to be working on something new soon.

Trich contamination in a monotub isn't always the result of trich in grain spawn. Bacteria can get by undetected in your grain spawn and can weaken the mushroom culture which can allow trich to get a foothold during fruiting. It's happened to me and numerous other cultivators on this site. It can be very frustrating. Everything will look good and fully colonize so you introduce fruiting and than BAM, trich shows its ugly face. The best way to combat this is to make sure your culture is uniform and not random or sparadic on agar first before inoculating grain.
